oK as a few of you know the busa has gone through hell, including me
Ok well seriously after building it in 2005 just one thing after another, blew it up, rebuilt it in 2007, started having issues with it then in 2008 was too busy with work.
Then latter part of 2008 my Wife passed away, so I put everything away and said F-it.
Got re-married boy that was a f-n joke, she hit me like a mack truck running a redlight during school zone hours and me being in the school crossing.
I had the MCX Mech pump fail, and after doing whaT i COULD TO get a repaired pump or hell even parts to fix it from MCX that was a joke,
Richard of RCC says he got no response from his inquiry and on and on and on..
I asked Chris to help but got busy with the divorce and moving on and relocating, dealing with Workers comp in TX is a joke.
Broke my ankle Feb last yr at work- still out of work because of it, and trying to survive on workers comp is well to be fair I get a pay check each wk it's a hell of alot better then unemployed status, but that is coming to an end soon enough.
I have to find a whole new way to make a living after being an electrician for 22 yrs.
So soon I hope to be back in school..
wow Enough yet?
Ok Ok - well after much BS and debate I started googling "electric Scavenge pumps " again and low and behold I foudn the Cycle tech pump on the sh.org post from 2009..
I bought the $84.50 shipped to my house pump, and after a few errors on my behalf it "SEEMS" to be keeping up with the flow of my turbo.
The MCXpump Mech Pump, returns to the Starter cover, so I gutted it and cut the suction line to the MCX Catch Can mounted on the bottom of the turbo, and inserted the new pump inline.
I run a Turbonetics T4 Series T61 not a T-61 t3 based unit.
According to Turbonetics I have to run no smaller then a .060 restrictor or I void my warranty, so that effects what may work in a dual BB situation (use .035 restrictors)
anyway just wanted to vent a little and figure why not here since I been gone for awhile...
Waiting on the go ahead from Dr's to ride again (they better hurry up)
I need to road test the pump to make sure it CAN keep up with the flow during higher RPM operation.
But I need this cold weather gone, and to reg the busa..
Johnny cheese I am hoping to get the TUNE on my MT2 he has a special going on till end of Feb for Dyno Tune @ $150.oo
I built this bike in 2005 for two purposes 1) Because I was told I Could NOT do it.. & 2)to get me a 200+ mph cert at the Tx Mile in 2005, this may be the yr I can accomplish it, maybe October anyway, have to much to safety wire etc etc.
guess that's it for now..
Happy New Year All!
Ron
